"Oh. what Is life anyway?" We nil of ?is fee! thnt way sOraeIiikiY, and there are many things to make us feci Justified in so feeling. There hnvo been ten thousand dell nitons or life given By wits ana saij.es ever since history began. One of TBc most brilliant poets ana uraninLsts who ever wrote in English hojJ. "Life Is one long sickness, redeemed by exquisite moments." Lite is too big a thing to be crn;.imed into an) epigratnatt- uefini tin.* but let lis remember that there ur? least two stdes or it.

This is for the espo* oial benefit of Wilmington, since that place is writhing considerably under the ?-ustir Slate-wide prohibition bill Th>8 bit oi proposed legislation is in striking contrast to that enacted ?t a recent session of the General Assembly absolutely prohibiting the sale of "near-beer." This was unquestionably to be commended, pro-r foS hitiou or no prohibition, for the rea"* ~' son that it drove out of business the cheap and dirty slop joints which had sprung up everywhere for the dispensation of the sickly dish-water bev era?*-. If the Kellum bill passes. many will naturally b?- inclined to ask. ' What's the use of prohibition anyi. way?" "We will all be bored once more " with the resurrection of that question which but shortly occupied the sagerit judicial rpinds of North Carolina What is beer?" The extfet percentage of alcohol allowable would have to be fixed. And would they expect to analyze every glass dispensed by the licensed beer parlors? The only way to make prohibition successful even to the extent of keeping saloons from putting up electric signs is to have the law call for abH solute prohibition. Mr. H. H. Wheaton. of Raleigh.
